Chapter 50: Tiger Sha Pill
Upon hearing this, Zheng Deyu's face turned cold, and black aura dissipated, causing the surrounding air to drop by several degrees.
"Since that's the case, then you can go die with them!"
Black airflow erupted suddenly, and Qin Jiang's Black Water blade pointed diagonally at the ground.
*Swish——! * A black-red blade light flashed, the surging black airflow stopped abruptly, and the massive black-red *Sha* Qi swallowed the black airflow in the blink of an eye.
Swing the blade, shake off the blood, sheath the blade.
Qin Jiang stood behind Zheng Deyu and turned around slowly, his eyes filled with a hint of confusion.
When he swung the blade just now, he hadn't sensed the slightest resistance.
Zheng Deyu turned back, his hollow eye sockets rotating, becoming clear.
"My Lord, thank you."
As the words fell, a cool breeze blew by, and his body dissipated into black mist filling the sky, along with the ash box.
Tian Shangfei walked over and draped the black cloak over Qin Jiang.
That night, Xiuzhen Ward, Anxin Villa.
Qin Jiang sat in the pavilion of the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes deep.
After mastering the Red Tiger Fist, he had become a bit arrogant.
He hadn't killed Zheng Deyu the moment he confirmed he was a weird entity, and had actually explained how he had discovered it.
Most importantly, he had felt compassion, which was not advisable for him at this moment.
The moonlight shone into his eyes, and he raised his hand slightly, as if to grasp the moon in his palm.
He looked at the panel.
【Current Martial Arts】
Longevity Five Qi Technique (Second Layer) (220/400)
Iron Arm Fist (Perfected)
Earth Dragon Body (Second Layer) (170/300)
Red Tiger Fist (Second Layer) (50/900)
【Potential Points: 14.3】
The potential points were enough to upgrade the Red Tiger Fist to the third layer. Over the past few days, he had also gradually learned to control the *Sha* Qi within his body.
It was just that, occasionally, he still couldn't help but feel that kind of violent emotion.
After seeing the Gang Leader tomorrow, he would see if there was a solution. If not, perhaps he could seek another mind-cultivation technique to practice concurrently? The next day, Kaiming Ward, Red Tiger Gang Headquarters, Qin Jiang and Lu Xuanwu sat opposite each other.
Today, after Qin Jiang got up, he came directly to the headquarters to ask Lu Xuanwu about the Tiger Sha Intent of the Red Tiger Fist.
And Lu Xuanwu had long since brewed tea, as if he knew Qin Jiang would definitely come impatiently today.
"Actually, I am surprised that you were able to master the Red Tiger Fist relying entirely on your own strength."
Lu Xuanwu poured a cup of tea for Qin Jiang and took a sip from his own cup.
Qin Jiang looked confused. "What does that mean? If you don't rely on yourself to master the Red Tiger Fist, do you have to rely on some external object?"
Lu Xuanwu nodded as if it were a matter of course. "You may not know, but the Red Tiger Fist we practice is different from ordinary high-level True Martial Arts. During practice, it generates extremely dense *Sha* Qi.
Although this *Sha* Qi is very powerful, it also affects the practitioner's sanity.
Therefore, the practice of the Red Tiger Fist requires the Tiger Sha Pill to calm the *Sha* Qi, so that one can master the Red Tiger Fist.
Otherwise, with *Sha* Qi flooding the crown, the light result is falling into *Qi* deviation, and the heavy result is death and soul dissipation.
Moreover, even after mastering the basics, one cannot leave this Tiger Sha Pill; one needs to take one every so often, otherwise, there is a danger of *Sha* Qi losing control. I think you should have experienced this point."
Qin Jiang nodded slightly. "It feels a bit unpleasant."
Lu Xuanwu smiled, his eyes filled with a hint of gratification.
"The reason I didn't give you this Tiger Sha Pill at the beginning was actually to see to what extent you could withstand the *Sha* Qi on your own. Yet, I never expected you to give me such a big surprise. Besides your sister, you are the second person I have seen who mastered the Red Tiger Fist without relying on the Tiger Sha Pill." "Gang Leader, medicine is three-tenths poison. If this Tiger Sha Pill is taken for a long time, won't there be Dan poison accumulating in the body?" Qin Jiang asked.
Dan poison was secondary; the main thing was that he believed that martial arts requiring reliance on external objects like pills to maintain practice were not the right path.
Lu Xuanwu smiled and took out a palm-sized cloth bag from his bosom and handed it to Qin Jiang.
Qin Jiang opened the bag, and inside were seven or eight translucent blood-red pills, with mist-like fluid inside the pills.
"You are right. All mortal medicines have three-tenths toxicity, and the Dan poison of the Tiger Sha Pill can stimulate *Sha* Qi and increase the risk of losing control. Therefore, when taking the Tiger Sha Pill, one needs to find a quiet place to refine it.
Generally speaking, this Tiger Sha Pill can be eaten about once a month. If one cannot master it within three years, the accumulated Dan poison will be like a powder keg.
In that case, one can no longer practice this Red Tiger Fist. Forcing practice will only lead to *Sha* Qi breaking the spirit and the body exploding to death!
And if one masters the Tiger Sha Fist Intent, one can use the Fist Intent to expel the Dan poison from the body. Although it cannot be completely expelled, it will not have much impact," Lu Xuanwu said.
Qin Jiang nodded slightly, always feeling that something was not quite right, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Alright, these Tiger Sha Pills are enough for your needs for half a year. When you finish them, just go directly to the Medicine Pavilion next to the Martial Pavilion to collect more."
Having said this, Lu Xuanwu paused for a moment and then continued: "There is one more thing to tell you. A deacon of the Fourth Hall has also mastered the Red Tiger Fist. I don't know if you want to be Sixth Master or Fourth Master."
Qin Jiang's eyes changed slightly upon hearing this. "Naturally, Fourth Master."
Lu Xuanwu was not surprised. His junior brother was the original Fourth Master, and Qin Jiang's sister had also competed for Fourth Master back then.
"Since that's the case, I intend to merge the Fourth Hall and the Sixth Hall into one. When the time comes, if you want to take over, you will need to compete with him. The winner will be the new Fourth Master of my Red Tiger Gang."
Qin Jiang nodded. "I understand."
The new Fourth Master, Nie Dongsheng. Xiuzhen Ward, Anxin Villa.
"Hahahaha! Congratulations! It seems it won't be long before I have to call you Fourth Master!"
Chen Feng laughed. He had long known that the Gang Leader intended to merge the Fourth and Sixth Halls. The original best candidate was Qin Hong, but Qin Hong had suddenly disappeared.
Actually, he also knew that the so-called disappearance was just an excuse; basically, she was dead.
Because of this, it benefited him and that guy Nie Dongsheng.
Because according to gang rules, people at the Elder level cannot directly participate in gang management and can only receive dividends distributed according to proportions every year.
Although it was not a small amount, compared to the income of directly managing a hall, it was much less.
This was also something that couldn't be helped. One couldn't let these old guys occupy positions and not let the younger generation rise, right? Gangs are all about the word "interest." Where is there any respect for the old and love for the young? Without sufficient interest, who would be idle enough to join a gang?
Moreover, do you really think these Elders want to give up their positions? It's not because the Gang Leader is forcing them.
This is also why the position of Head of Hall has always been vacant. Only those who can suppress all dissatisfaction in the gang are qualified to sit in the position of Head of Hall.
The inheritance of the position of Red Tiger Gang Leader has never relied on any flashy succession ceremony, but purely on strength to snatch it.
If no one can do this, the position of Gang Leader will remain vacant until the person with the strength comes to take it.
Qin Jiang smiled upon hearing this. "Elder Chen is too polite. Is there anything you want to see me about this time?"
Chen Feng nodded. "It's not a big deal, just to tell you that you are now a deacon, and you can handle the Head Chiefs under you as you see fit.
Besides that, there is one small matter: the hundred acres of farmland outside the west of the city withered overnight. Take some time to go and see.
After all, thirty percent of the taxes there belong to our Red Tiger Gang."
Outside the west of the city?
Qin Jiang seemed to remember something and asked, "Are those hundred acres of fertile land owned by the Xu family?"
Chen Feng looked at Qin Jiang in surprise. "Outside the west of the city, including the land outside the west of the city, which piece is not owned by the Xu family?"
Qin Jiang nodded. "Alright, I'll go there tomorrow."
"Hmm, alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going."
After Chen Feng left, Qin Jiang called Meng An.
"Old Meng, after I am promoted to deacon, how much monthly allowance can I get?"
